Dellmasive / mmi many thanks guys the back story on the van is a bit of a long one and we didn't want to go into the full story as we didn't think we would get a reply as we never been on forums etc.
We bought the van off a local car dealer 5 months ago, we purchased it as a trade sale, the van was running perfect but for peace of mind as we didn't know Any history on the van we decided to get the timing belt changed and a service.
We were pointed in the direction of a local mechanic who works on vag to do the work.
After a few days we picked the van up again new timing belt and fresh service everything was running great we proceeded to drive the van for a further 2 weeks with no problems.
Then 1 day we drove 20 miles or so switched the van off and when we tried to start it, it wouldn't start just turned over extremely fast, luckily enough we were parked outside another car dealership and their mechanic came out and had a look and said the timing belt was slack the tensioner had sheared.
We then had the van recovered we were then recommended to bring the van to an audi specialist down the road from us so we got the van to him he had it for a week or so another new timing belt fitted and he phoned to say it was bad news the van wasn't running right he said there is more than likely bent valves etc, so that was no problem we said do what ever it needs the van got all new rockers 8 new inlet valves and 8 new exhaust valves.
After about a month or so of the van still in the specialist shop we phoned and we were told the van was running perfect compression was perfect etc all he had to do was Button everything up and we were good to collect the van. After being passed from pillar to post with him saying they haven't got round to building it back up to being told they forgot to put a bracket on and another 2 months later we phoned again to see if it was ready we were then told the van was running but would not start when the van was warm.
Then a few days later we were told the van would not start at all. We were told multiple stories we were told there was a blown capacitor in the ecu so apparently it was sent off and fixed when it came back he said yes the van on running great so we Said we would be down the following day to collect the van and suprise suprise the next day the van wasn't running again. That was the last straw we said we are coming to get the van as we were sick of all the different stories. We had lost faith in him to be honest.
We got the van recovered back up to our yard after receiving a bill from the specialist for £2.597 for the work he had carried out even though the van wasn't running we then removed the injectors ourselves and sent them away to be tested the test came back saying 3 of the injectors were not working and 1 was not spraying enough l, we then purchased 4 reconed injectors put them in yesterday got a lend of vcds and coded them in but to no avail the van is still just cranking but not firing up.
We also changed the fuel filter and with the fuel line off there and ignition on the fuel Is flying out of it so definitely getting fuel that far. Also with the high pressure line slacking off@ the injectors we are getting fuel there too.
The van will start amd run on easy start.
Terrible sorry about the novel guys we are at our witts end with it.
